In mid-February, a firebomb, referred to as a 'Molotov cocktail', was thrown at the entrance of a residence in Dal, Eidsvoll, resulting in a fire but no injuries. Following the incident, police arrested five individuals suspected of being involved. The first arrest took place in Oslo, followed by a coordinated operation that led to the apprehension of the other four suspects in Agder and Trondheim.

The five arrested have been charged with complicity in endangering public safety. The man arrested in Oslo has undergone questioning but denies any wrongdoing. The status of the other four individuals regarding the charges remains unclear, as no public statements have been released regarding their admissions or defenses.

This incident highlights concerns regarding safety and the use of incendiary devices in residential areas. Authorities are likely to increase vigilance to prevent similar occurrences in the future, as such violence poses risks not only to the targeted individuals but to the broader community as well.
